About the programme

This blog has been set-up as part of Manukau Libraries Learning 2.0 project to encourage staff to experiment and learn about the new and emerging technologies that are reshaping the context of information on the Internet today. The objectives of this program are to:
  • encourage exploration of Web 2.0 and new technologies by Manukau Libraries staff
  • provide staff with new tools (that are freely available on the Internet) to better support Manukau Libraries mission: To boldly go where no man has gone before
  • reward staff for taking the initiative to complete 6 self-discovery exercises
  • encourage staff to explore any and all Web 2.0 tools Manukau Libraries is currently using
Dates to remember
Starts: August 2010
Ends: November 2010

The Learning 2.0 programme was designed by Helene Blowers, PLCMC Technology Director, with the support and assistance of several staff and is loosely based upon Stephen Abram's article, 43 Things I (or You) might want to do this year (Information Outlook - Feb 2006) and the website 43Things.

The design of this online programme was completely built on Web 2.0 technologies that are freely available on the Internet. These sites include: Box.net, Picapp, FeedMyInbox, TasteSpotting & SlideShare.
